Q3 WHITE METAL MARKET REPORT

FLD has released its third quarter White Metal Market Report, outlining the state of the fleet industry in 2022. The report notes that although many challenges from 2021, such as shortages in labor and chips, as well as supply chain issues, persist, the fleet industry has learned to thrive despite them. The report goes on to suggest that the worst may be behind the industry, and that it has found a new normal. The report also provides an overview of the first half of 2022, highlighting wholesale vehicle prices, which likely peaked in Q1, and the impact of inflation and gas prices on businesses. While supply chain issues are likely to persist in the near term, the report suggests that the industry’s ability to deal with them will be a key indication of how well it will weather the current storm.
